I have to say, not sure what it looked like before due to the many edits, but I like what I see now.

One thing though, for that ulti, make the auto-attack do more damage or something I think.

Also, if you have different effect ideas for the hellfire round, I suggest you use those, since the one you suggested sounds like it would be more fitting for the Haemonculous (or however you spell that.).

I really like the Deep-strike too.

Just my 2 cents.

I'll look into the codex sometime this week and try to help with the 4th skill.

the ult, however much i do like it, doesnt fit with the rest of his theme. itll either completly go against his theme, becoming useless, or itll make him too much of a nuker-then-dps hero, making him way too powerful

Looking back, I sort of agree that Black Rage wouldn't fit well with him. Maybe I'll make a Blood Angel Death Company marine later.

I'm considering "Righteous Zeal", a Black Templar Special Ability.

Righteous Zeal: "While most Space Marines under heavy fire or facing insurmountable odds in close combat will retreat, ready to counter-attack, the Black Templars will often hurl themselves at the enemy with even greater determination and fervent anger, their own casualties only serving to spur them on faster, hungry for vengeance on the slayers of their brethren."

or...

No Pity! No Remorse! No Fear!: "As our bodies are armoured with adamantium, our souls are protected with loyalty. As our bolters are charged with death for the Emperor's enemies, our thoughts are charged with wisdom. As our ranks advance, so does our devotion, for are we not Space Marines? Are we not the chosen of the Emperor, his loyal servants unto death?"

Reposted so you don't have to go back to 2nd page and scroll to find it. Normally I don't think Librarians would really use a heavy bolter, more often use a Force Weapon of some kind. But he really doesn't use any psyker powers, except the "Storm of the Emperor's Wrath", and it doesn't require a Force Weapon to focus the energy. Then again, something about that just doesn't feel right.. I might have to re-remove his Librarian skills.

Codicier Hyroniemus, Deathwatch Veteran

Skill 1: Deep Strike [Innate - Activated]Space Marines are frequently deployed from strike cruisers and battle barges. This enables them to keep reserves on-ship and bring them into action by Thunderhawk gunship, teleportation or, in this case, by drop pod.(Spawns a Homing Beacon upon Hyroniemus' death. Invulnerable, invisible. Has 'Return to HQ' ability. Map-wide 'Blink', 10 min cooldown. Hyroniemus will respawn on the beacon instead of HQ. I think his other abilities should be disabled for afew seconds after respawning so he doesn't land in the middle of a fight and use his Ultimate on some unlucky fool. Atleast give them a chance to run.)

Skill 2: Suppressive Fire [Channel]The special heavy bolter Hyroniemus carries is equiped with a suspensor unit common amongst the Deathwatch Kill Teams. Normally the heavy bolter requires even a Space Marine to remain stationary while firing, but with a suspensor unit it is possible to lay down suppressive fire while advancing.(Ranged attacks. Deals low-med dmg (primary function is to immobilize) but drastically reduces targetted enemy's movement / attack speeds (hard to fight when shells are whizzing literally all around you). Medium range. Hyroniemus can move while channeling, but cannot use his regular attack or other abilities without breaking the link.)

Skill 3: Melta-Bomb [Cast]Designed primarily to burn through the armor of enemy vehicles, but are just as effective when used against fleshier targets.(Very short range. Barely outside melee. Melta-Bombs are usually required to be strapped to a target, but may be thrown. Explodes dealing minor AOE damage. Larger damage and armor reduction to targetted unit for X amount of time. Levels increase damage and armor reduction, but not AOE.)

Skill 5: Vortex of Doom [Ultimate - Cast]Opening a tear between the material realm and the howling destruction of the Warp, the Librarian's enemies are destroyed by the twisting energies unleashed. But such power comes at a price, and to lose control of it, even for a moment, is to invite terrible consequence.(AoE around Hyroniemus. "Perils of the Warp", X % to suffer the same effects as enemies caught in the Vortex. Pulls all enemies caught in AoE towards Hyroniemus. Creeps that reach Hyroniemus are instantly killed, heroes that reach Hyroniemus suffer Mana Burn for X % of their max mana for the duration of the Vortex spell. Tainted by contact with the Immaterium, enemy heroes are Slowed for X seconds after end of Vortex.)

@Fromun: Hellfire is a special round used by the Ordo Xenos Deathwatch Killteams... It does exactly what I have as the ability. I could change it though. They have other specialized ammo.

Don't get me wrong, it's a good skill, and works well with the hero. The thing is, if you use it for him, then we can't use it for Haemonculous, who is all about poison weapons.

That being said, I REALLY like the build you just posted. Personally, I prefer Vortex of Doom as an ulti. Then again though, if you give me a risk vs reward skill, that's the one I'm most likely to prefer

well, im liking him now. and yeah i like vortex of doom more. however, 100% of anything is *way* to much. lower the %'s of manaburn a bit more (or theoretically, make the libby suffer the effects the enemies do isntead od the perils chance, because technically the vortex is ontop of him ) or isntead of an instant huge burn, make it burn like 100% over 2-3 seconds.
